VAM News recalls that on Monday, Olorunfemi was viciously attacked by a mob after crushing a road user to death and injuring six others due to alleged reckless driving around Sunday bus stop, Ijoka, Akure South Local Government Area.
After killing the driver, the mob also set his Toyota Camry car ablaze.
According to the police spokesperson in the state, Funmilayo Odunlami-Omisanya, one of the two arrested suspects allegedly masterminded the burning of the car.
